“Boots”Well, what can I tell you about Boots... she is a one-of-a-kind mare. At 14 yrs old (2018), Boots is by far the oldest horse on the property, with classic lines that are only spoiled by a permanent ‘baby belly’. She is the unquestioned matriarch of our little herd. She rules the younger mares (and the studs) with an iron hoof and stands no nonsense from them or between them. And yet she loves being with people, especially small children, and is gentle as a lamb with us all.Boots is black as the Ace of Spades with 4 white ‘boots’... which might be where she gets her barn name from. Standing 15hh, this gal is built like a tank, with a wide, muscular chest, square rump and solid legs. But don’t let that fool you, she is light on her feet and can spin on a dime with blinding speed... just ask the other horses. She has a surprisingly pretty head, which we tend to forget while she’s giving us hec for making her wait for her feed, lol.All joking aside, there are strong reasons for having this exceptional mare in our program. Boots produces outstanding foals year after year and is an excellent mother every time. Her linebreeding stats offer a veritable Who’s Who list of famous names with Doc Bar, Peppy San, Mr San Peppy, Dry Doc, all just off her papers... and it shows every time one of her foals is born.Boots is bred to perform and look good doing it. She is 12.5% Docs Hotrodder (Superior Halter; ROM Performance; AQHA Champion); 12.5% Dry Doc 17 (Reining and Cutting sire); and 12.5% Genivine Bingo (1972 open AQHA Champion - mare).
